Special situations and crisis communications
Is your company facing extraordinary challenges? Is it threatened by internal or external developments? Is an important product being publicly criticised, or does one have to be recalled? Have you suddenly lost the support of a key decision-maker? Is your company feeling the financial strain due to cashflow or its debt situation? Are unexpected developments threatening the company's reputation, or that of its management or products? Are you someone who is in the public eye, and do you fear your reputation might be damaged by negative press?
CNC experts have been called upon to advise on some of the most dramatic corporate crises of the past 15 years. CNC has extensive experience in how to create a communications strategy designed to protect a company's reputation or that of its senior management in critical situations. We also know which tactics work best to help steer perceptions in the right direction. As crisis consultants, we have proved time and again that the clients with the right strategy can get through even the most extreme situations and emerge unscathed. Our standing in the market and our credibility among the press help to ensure this.
Companies in special situations dealing with issues such as insolvency, financial or corporate restructurings or distressed debt rely to a great extent on the understanding of relevant public bodies regarding the developments at the company. Our experience has shown that a communications strategy which builds trust and addresses all those involved is often the deciding factor in successfully handling a special situation. To make this happen, the interests of employees, customers and suppliers must be taken into account, as must those of banks, creditors and the political world.
